Yesterday, we closed AMERICAN SPIES AND OTHER HOMEGROWN FABLES. We here at The Hub bid a very fond and *grateful* goodbye-for-now to Paper Crane, Maneki Neko, the Ishii family, and every artist who contributed to bringing them and their world to sparkling life.

Carolyn Kashner plays dual roles as the nosy neighbor ”Diane” & the suspicious “Officer” in AMERICAN SPIES: “I hope audiences leave performances thinking about their own family's stories, and how we all contribute to the great American Story; whether our families have been here for many generations or less than one.”

Kramer Kwalick plays young “George” in AMERICAN SPIES: “American Spies is an anime-inspired take on one families' reaction to the tragic events of December 7, 1941. It's a family story with love, conflict, and sacrifice.” Final weekend of performances behind this Friday! https://www.thehubtheatre.org/americanspies
